I don`t watch many DVD`s on my PC but Installed "Interactual 2.0" DVD Player off my R1 Swordfish DVD, seems to play R1 discs without a problem even though my Pioneer Drive is set to R2. My copy of PowerDvd won`t let me play R1 so I was quite surprised.
Hope this helps anyone who`s being having problems. Obviously not totally free, but if you buy a disc or borrow one off someone that has the "Interactual" Software it could come in handy.
